Aoba Office

"It's a new ghost." The nurse said hesitantly, "Li Wangxi answered the phone and something didn't feel right. She mentioned some kind of transaction and wanted to use someone to exchange it. So, she was..."

From what I heard, I knew that the nurse was not hiding something on purpose, but that she really didn’t know what was going on. She only knew a rough idea, and this little content was enough to make people in the real world who were accustomed to the Ghost King uneasy.

Probably not many people dare to use the phone anymore.

The nurse finally kindly reminded me to be careful when answering the phone and not to answer the phone casually.

I thanked her for her kindness and didn't ask any further questions.

I've been able to determine that she doesn't have two memories.

The time points of the dreams may have overlapped, but the more likely situation is that she didn't know what happened specifically, and she didn't know whether Li Wangxi was dead or not. At most, she knew that Li Wangxi was attacked by the ghost king, and a new ghost king was born. That’s all.

You may have to ask Li Wangxi and her colleagues to find out the specific situation. The two of them are parties involved and must know best.

However, both of them should be protected now, or in other words, being questioned.

I ate all the cold porridge, put the empty thermos bucket aside, and put the note away.

There was no cell phone on the bedside table, and I couldn't determine the current situation, so I just lay back on the bed.

I feel tired, but once I calm down and don't think about other things, those memories are like gangrene attached to my bones and I can't get rid of them.

I thought I would calm down after watching it a few times and get used to it, but every time I saw it, I would feel sad and despair.

I'm not the kind of person who turns despair into motivation. Especially since this despair comes from Aoba's death, it is even harder for me to turn it into motivation.

It was already my effort to go against my true intention and take the initiative to ask.

There are more things that I can’t seem to do now.

Is it really impossible?

You should still be able to do something.

I met the demon Hensit who called himself the God of Death, and I met Hensite’s men.

Can you possess them, enter their dreams, or simply gain access to all their memories?

They may also be transformed from dead souls.

I thought about it and suddenly wanted to try it.

If I succeed, there will definitely be more I can do.

Although I don’t know what changes will be brought about by improving abilities, it is always a good thing, right? Even if I want to become a ghost king and protect my family and friends, I still have to become stronger.

Become stronger...

There is no established goal or big plan to save the world, just getting stronger.

When I was thinking this, I suddenly felt my soul shake.

I could feel that my soul was trying to fly out of my body, but something seemed to be blocking it.

This feeling is a bit like entering a dream.

I have never fully mastered this ability. Most of the time, I just rush directly into the dream world, and I have never really felt the wonderful fluctuations of the ability in my hands. Completely different from the ability to reverse time.

But at this time, I seemed to have touched the truth of ability.

My soul is struggling to fly out of my body. I can feel that there is a connection between my soul and my body, but the connection is intermittent and not close.

I seemed to see a strange tattoo on my body and didn't know what it was.

The body and soul exude different atmospheres, but they can be unified together.

Like two parts of a puzzle.

When combined together, they are one thing; when separated, they can exist independently.

The soul and body can exist independently, and the soul can transform into a ghost and generate Yin Qi.

But, there are always some differences.

I had an indescribable feeling. After observing and experiencing it in detail for a while, I finally saw the tattoo clearly.

That's not a tattoo, but a chain. The so-called connection is more like a tangible magnetism. The two chains attract each other.

My field of vision is like a third-party bystander's perspective, and I can even reach out and shake the chain.

With just a light touch, the tangible magnetism disappears.

My soul flew up and felt another kind of magnetism.

Different chains appeared in front of me, with somewhat similar shapes but completely different colors and textures.

Is this another person?

wrong.

This is not the only kind of chain that appears in my eyes.

I'm in a dark space, and only these glowing chains can make me see.

The chains on my body are different. They are a strange black color. The chains are very thick in shape, but they only tie the soul in a circle. Most of the chains are the silver ring chains you see every day, wrapped around the body several times. The red chains I saw at first were different from them.

Further away, I also saw strange gray chains, and those chains exuded Yin Qi.

That's a ghost.

Their chains all extend out, and there are many branch chains, which are buckled on many ordinary chains.

Suddenly, I understood the meaning of these different chains, and my eyes turned to the red chain.

It was only then that I saw clearly that the red chains were filled with mist. The mist expanded, and the stars spread outward, and it could be said that they were floating everywhere. This kind of mist also has different shades, gathering around ordinary chains.

Mencet!

When I thought of this name, a magnetic force formed between the chains on my body and the red chains, sucking my whole soul in.

The darkness breaks and light returns.

I saw the skeleton holding a scythe and the woman in front of it who was answering the phone.

There was a deep male voice on the phone. The voice was majestic, and one could easily imagine the image of a prim and proper middle-aged man.

"...This is the situation now. You can exchange your lifespan for your daughter's lifespan, think about it yourself."

The woman said hastily: "As long as my daughter is fine! As long as she is alive, I am fine no matter what!"

I took a step forward and saw a little baby on the small bed in front of the woman. Her face was purple, which made it obvious that she was about to die.

The person on the other end of the phone said calmly: "Okay. The contract is reached."

The god of death swung his scythe and slashed through the woman's body.

I reached out subconsciously, but this time I didn't touch anything.

The woman was not cut in half, she just stared, the phone in her hand fell to the ground, and her body fell limply.

A woman's soul hangs from the skull's scythe. It flicked casually, and the woman's soul fell on the little bed, turned into little bits of light, and penetrated into the baby girl's body.

The baby girl's purple face slowly softened and became normal.

I saw the chains on the baby girl. It was an ordinary silver chain, but red mist kept leaking out of the chain and drifted towards the location of the skeleton. Both of them were located where the fog was thickest, and there was also free red fog in other places.

On the other hand, when I looked closely at this time, I noticed the difference between me and ordinary people.

There are two chains on my body, one on the soul and one on the body. The chain on the soul is only tied once, but the chain on the body is nine full times. Ordinary people only have one chain, which locks their soul and body, and it only has nine rings.

Is this the difference between capable people and ordinary people?

Is this the label that Nangong Yao has seen before?

When I was thinking, my eyes seemed to be able to see more clearly.

I saw the nine circles of chains on the baby girl's body, and they were connected to something. After looking carefully for a long time, I found that there were several hidden chains extending from the baby girl's body. However, these chains are also different. Most of them are fastened to the chain rings on the baby girl. Only one of them actually extends from the chain on the baby girl and disappears into the void.

Good night everyone~
